We gotta slow the game down. Run. Run. Run. Play action. Slant. Bubble screen. RB screen. Curls. Quick outs. Drags. Then eventually take the top off.

I actually think this is a much tougher match up than last week's game simply because who the Bucs now have as a Head Coach and Def Coordinator.

Lattimore will need to replicate his performance on those boundaries.

Goodwin and Mike Evans are problems.

I agree with Rez, but we need to force teddy into deep throws more often. Teddy is 1-7 on throws of 15yds or more, that's awful but you have to keep the threat of it in the game so DBs don't start cheating up. I would also mix in Hill and let him have about 15 snaps at QB, not for gadget plays, but for actually throwing the ball and making reads.

He will never be Drew. He has done well enough to win 2 very difficult games.

That being said the offense needs to step up next week against the Sucs

As long as he can make Aaron Brooks look bad, we will all be OK with that.

We don’t have a true slot receiver that runs great routes. We need that. We also need a burner.

We have the slot candidates, we just need to pick one and get him the reps...

Burner? Neaux, you're absolutely right on that one...

Who’s your favorite candidate?

Carr? I’m not sure Lil’Jordan is a true slot. Kirkwood maybe? I think Tre’Quan will end up being in the Tedd Ginn role.

I hope he gets back soon. It looked like the light bulb was just about to come on when he got injured.

Teach Deonte Harris the playbook and have him go deep to pull the defense
